Glutamate is an amino acid, found in protein-containing foods. It is one of the most abundant and important components of proteins. Glutamate occurs naturally in cheese, milk, meat, fish, and many vegetables. Glutamate is also produced by the human body and is vital for metabolism and brain function.
Fresh frozen plasma. Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) is a blood product made from the liquid portion of whole blood. It is used to treat conditions in which there are low blood clotting factors (INR>1.5) or low levels of other blood proteins. It is also used as part of plasma exchange.
For the great majority of clinical situations, thawed plasma can be used interchangeably with FFP. Using thawed plasma can improve turnaround time by eliminating the time required for thawing and also reduces product wastage by extending the 24-hour shelf life of FFP by 4 more days.
